Chapter 131 – The FBI Tactic

The army entered Ganling District territory . The city wall of Ganling was in their sight, yet there was no sign of resistance from the defense force .

Normally, the defending army should have sent scouts or an army to intercept them on their way, but Zhang Yan did not deploy his troops at all .

Tong stared at his radar map in baffled . Within 10 kilometers, Zhang Yan and his army were not presented on the map . It was as if they disappeared or had already run away from the city .

Inside Ganling City, Tong could still see white dots of the citizens in their houses and other buildings, but most of them did not gather together like a proper army or a group of soldiers, which puzzled Tong .

"Feihong, what's your monitor range again?"

"Monitor?"

"Your private world monitor . "

"Oh, if it's a casual wide range view, I can see everything within one km . But if you want to see further, my monitor vision will become smaller and narrower . The maximum range should be something around 4-5km . But if I were to do that, I can't share my monitor vision with other people in that world . "

"That's a pity . Go back to your world and scout the city for me . I want to know if there is still any bandit inside the city or what has happened to the city . Take this pen and ink . Write down a map or something for me . "

"Roger that . "

Li Feihong snapped his fingers and a blue gate appeared in front of him . A bodyguard soldier helped Feihong rolled his wheelchair into the gate which they disappeared together into the gate .

Zhao Yun stared dumbstruck at the disappearance of the two men . Then he turned to look at Tong as if he wanted an explanation .

Tong smirked at Zhao Yun and shrugged .

"Get used to it . You'll see more of these in the future . "

. . .

As soon as Li Feihong got into his private world, hundreds of monitors appeared around him .

"Long-range mode!"

<switching to="" long="" range="" spying="" camera="" mode="">>

<you can="" now="" pilot="" the="" spy="" camera="">>

All monitors were closed . Feihong's vision merged with the system eyes . As if he was piloting a drone with a camera on it, his vision zoomed to the city wall, flew past the city wall, flew over the town areas and got inside the city .

Li Feihong rotated his vision around to observe the people and the surrounding of the city .

'I can't see anyone here . What's wrong with this city? Is this a ghost town?'

There was no sign of people of life in the city . No matter where Li Feihong zoomed or peeped, he could not find a trace of people .

"Toggle the infrared vision!"

His vision darkened . All building and road turned into various blue objects . Li Feihong darted his eyes around again to see if there was a sign of life .

'Found!'

He finally found the town people . All of them shut themselves in their houses as if they were afraid of something .

The location of the town people was not enough for Li Feihong . He continued scanning for more people around to city and managed to locate several suspicious groups of people .

Li Feihong did not wait around, he texted the messages into the clan chat .

"Suspicious people located in the city . I think they are trying to disguise themselves as local civilians to ambush us . "

Tong immediately replied .

"How do you know?"

"They have spears or swords and they group up in a team of 10 to 20 . I believe they are planning to ambush us once we get inside the city . "

"Understood . Continue looking for more info . I'll devise a tactic from here . Try to peek into the government building if there's anyone that behaves like a ringleader or their boss . "

"Roger that . "

…

An hour later, Li Feihong stopped using his long-range vision . He closed his eyes and rubbed his temples in exhaustion . Once he felt better, he started drawing a map on the scroll he received from Tong .

Another hour passed, a detailed map was completed . Li Feihong raised his head to look at his bodyguard .

"We're done here . Let's go back . "

A blue gate reopened again . Li Feihong and his bodyguard returned to Tong's side .

Seeing that Li Feihong returned, all attention from the soldiers were on the man in the wheelchair .

"How is it? Anything unusual?" Tong asked .

"Well, the only thing that is unusual is … I can't find their boss or someone that look like Zhang Yan . But I have the locations of the ambushers, here . "

Li Feihong passed his map to Tong .

"Well done . I'll take it from here . "

Tong opened the map and compared it with his radar map . He highlighted every ambusher that matched with his map location . The suspicious people number was 816 people .

However, Tong could not find Zhang Yan or someone who appeared to be the mysterious boss .

'Did they flee from the city? Or they are hiding somewhere outside of the city?'

Tong rechecked his map again to look for any unusual band of people .

Another 30 minutes passed, Tong could not find anyone suspicious .

'Should I bet on it? Or should I be careful?'

'But the proofs show that they left the city…'

'It's risky . I feel like I'm playing poker and my opponent is raising me . '

'…'

'… I call it bluff! I'm attacking the city!'

He stopped what he was doing and summoned all generals and commanders into his tent .

"Get ready to siege the city . I need the city surrounded and all gates under our control . "

Tong placed the map that Li Feihong drew on the strategic table . Then he put several stones on the locations of the potential ambushers .

"Remember these locations . The bandits have planned to ambush us inside the city, so we will not rush into the city immediately in this siege . Instead, we will occupy all exit points around the city and we'll smoke them out . "

"Zhang Liao, take your troops and 5000 infantries . You're in charge to attack the east gate . "

"Gao Shun, same order as Zhang Liao . You take the south gate . "

"Zhang Ji, you two take 5000 infantries and your horse archers and take the north gate . "

"I and Bo Cai will take the east gate . "

"Feihong, you're the operator and coordinator in this siege . Keep your bird's eye view on us!"

"Zhang Xiu, take your men and set up a refugee camp . We'll migrate all the population into the camp temporarily until the bandit subjugation is completed . "

Series of orders were given to the generals . They cupped their fists and dispersed to their respective platoons .

…

Because the city did not have any garrison guard on duty, all walls and gates fell before the sunset .

Instead of storming the city right away, the troops barricaded the gates and the stairs to the wall as they were locking down the perimeter .

Fifty special task forces in groups of 100 elite foot soldiers were formed . These soldiers rushed inside the city to their assigned target buildings in order to wipe out the ambushers inside .

One of the task force got in front of the suspected building . Half of the soldiers knock the doors of the suspected building's neighbors to evacuate all innocent civilians outside of the potential combat zones .

The moment that the scaring civilians saw the armors and the uniforms of the visitors, they cried in delight and gladly followed the instructions .

After they got the innocents out, the squadrons formed two lines of archers and aimed their arrows at the front door of the building . The lead soldier tossed a few torches into the wooden house which caught fire in a few seconds .

"FBI, YOU ARE SURROUNDED! COME OUT AND SURRENDER!"

The leader of the squadrons shouted the script that Tong had given them which he followed his instruction word-by-word, even though he had no idea what the word "FBI" was . For some reason, Tong affirmed them twice that they had to shout the word every time they were to perform this similar task or future tasks that might require them to apprehend criminals .

Twenty bandits in the house were panicked and rushed out of the building to the front door, which they were greeted by repeating crossbow arrows . The front bandits turned into a porcupine in an instant .

"Wait! I surrender-ARGH!"

"Stop shooting-ARGH!"

Despite the squad leader telling them to surrender, Tong had ordered everyone that they would not take prisoners . Everyone was skeptical about this because the script said that they wanted them to surrender, but if bandits wanted to surrender, they had to kill them all .

Each soldier started to have a weird thought in their mind .

'Do we have to throw in the torch before the warning?'

'Is this a scam?'

'This is a tactic, right?'

'Such script, so tactical, much wow . '

'10/10 Stratagem . Will burn a house again . '

The same event happened in other designated locations . Tong's soldiers could not help but question in their mind if Tong's brain was fine or this was an ingenious scam .

Meanwhile, Zhang Liao stood by the side and watched the burning house that he was assigned to .

"Good strategy . I'll use more of these in the future . "</you></switching>
